"A picture is a secret about a secret, the more it tells you the less you know.” -Diane Arbus
Photography is the practice of capturing life in moments and turning it into art. It is a medium that I have recently started to play in and found very inspirational. Photos tell the stories of our lives, the emotions we experience, the memories we cherish, and the people that are so important to us. The power of photography has been used in everything from art galleries to the battlefield; and now we are going to use it in this next Creative Play installment.
In this three-week course we will be taking class out of the basement and going for an adventure our in the City. For the first two weeks we will be meeting out at two different places in Denver. During these sessions, you will be given a list of prompts that you will use to take your photos. These prompts will relate to ideas, senses, memories, and emotions. There are only 15 spots available for this series and you must be able to attend all three sessions in order to register. You will also be provided with a free disposable camera that we will use for this project.
For our first day of photography we will be meeting at the main Pavilion at Cheesman Park. We will have a brief session focused on photography, with tips and tricks on getting the shots you want.
